Chapter 140 The Yun Family Learns News from the Capital
After several days of traveling by boat and car, Mu Yuxuan finally arrived in Qingyun County on a sunny afternoon.
He first returned home, washed off his fatigue, changed into new clothes, and told his parents about his experiences during this period.
Then, he rushed to the Yun family without stopping.
When he stepped into the Yun family, he was warmly received by Old Man Yun and Old Lady Yun.
Mu Yuxuan smiled and congratulated the two elders, "Congratulations, Auntie and Uncle Yun. Tingqing has now won the first place in the imperial examination and is currently serving as an official in the Hanlin Academy in the capital."
After hearing the word "number one scholar", Mr. Yun and Mrs. Yun fell into extreme shock, and could not hear the following words at all.
After a long while, they came back to their senses and said to Mu Yuxuan awkwardly, "Xiao Mu, did you just say that Ting Qing won the top spot in the imperial examination?"
Mu Yuxuan was well aware of the excitement of the two elders at the moment, and responded gently: "Yes, aunt, Tingqing did win the top prize, and he has been serving in the Hanlin Academy for several days."
Old Master Yun was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes. He stood up, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said, "That's great! Our Yun family has finally made a name for itself. I'm going to burn incense to my ancestors and tell them this great news."
As he spoke, he walked towards the ancestral hall with firm steps.
Old Lady Yun looked at Mu Yuxuan and asked, "Xiao Mu, what about you?"
"Aunt, I will be in Qingyun County from now on. I am the new magistrate of Qingyun County." Mu Yuxuan explained to Old Lady Yun.
Old Lady Yun patted Mu Yuxuan on the shoulder and said, "I heard people say that you were going to the new magistrate's county, but I didn't expect that the new magistrate would be you."
"Well, if you have any problems in the future, just come to me."
"Okay, Xiao Mu, Auntie has high hopes for you. You should work hard and strive to become a high-ranking official in the capital in the future."
Old Lady Yun looked at Mu Yuxuan with a smile. He was indeed a promising child as he was with her third son.
"Aunt, I just came back today and I have some things to do at home, so I'll leave first." Mu Yuxuan said to Old Lady Yun.
Old Lady Yun expressed her understanding and sent Mu Yuxuan out the door. Old Lady Yun could hardly hide her excitement. She jumped around like a little girl, humming an unknown song.
"Grandma, what's wrong with you? Why are you so happy?" Tiantian blinked her big watery eyes, looked at her smiling grandma with a puzzled look, and asked curiously.
Grandma was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. She excitedly shouted to Tiantian, "Our Tingqing has won the first place in the imperial examination!"
Upon hearing this exciting news, Tiantian's face instantly broke into a bright smile, and she said excitedly, "Wow, so that's how it is! I knew Third Uncle was the most amazing. He will definitely become an outstanding official in the future!"
At this moment, Tiantian's heart was filled with pride and joy, as if she saw her third uncle wearing official uniform and looking majestic.
At this time, Mr. Yun slowly walked into the house after burning incense.
He smiled, his eyes revealing an unconcealable sense of relief.
As soon as he entered the house, he couldn't wait to discuss it with Old Lady Yun: "Old Lady, since Tingqing has won the first place in the imperial examination, this is a huge happy event for our family! How about we set up a few tables of wine and feast to celebrate properly?"
Old Lady Yun nodded repeatedly, expressing her agreement: "Well, we should indeed celebrate properly! In my opinion, we should go back to the village in a few days, hold a two-day banquet in the village, and invite all the villagers to come and have fun.
Then, I also want to go to the capital to visit Tingqing. This kid is also so great that he didn't even come back to tell us in person about such a good news."
As she spoke, Old Lady Yun couldn't help but scold Tingqing, but her tone was full of doting.
After hearing what his wife said, Old Man Yun smiled and nodded in response, "Haha, yes, Ting Qing is truly the pride of our Yun family. He has truly brought honor to us!"
Old Lady Yun suddenly remembered that some people in the village had sneered at her family and said that they were dreaming and always wanted to climb up the social ladder.
Now that Tingqing has become the top scorer in the high school entrance examination, she secretly plans to take this opportunity to return home and fight back against those people's gossips, making them shut up and take back the unpleasant words they have said.
As night fell, the Yun family members walked into the spacious and bright main room one after another and found a place to sit down.
Everyone's eyes turned to Old Lady Yun who was sitting in the main seat, their eyes full of curiosity and anticipation.
You know, their family hasn't gathered together in such a neat group for a long time. Everyone couldn't help but wonder what the purpose of Mrs. Yun calling everyone together this time was.
Old Lady Yun coughed twice, cleared her throat, and said slowly in her slightly weathered but still resonant voice, "Ahem, Xiao Mu is here today and brings us some great news—our third child has been ranked number one in high school!"
Her tone was calm as water, but this short sentence was like a bomb dropped into a lake, instantly causing a thousand waves.
Before he finished speaking, the people present were stunned at first, then their faces showed joy, and they were so excited that they could hardly control themselves.
Especially Mr. Yun, he couldn't contain his inner joy and couldn't help but sigh: "Oh my, our third son is really impressive! Back then, he studied hard day and night, and now his hard work has finally paid off!"
Yun Tingluo, standing by, was already dancing with excitement, unable to wait, saying, "Dad, Mom, since the third son has won the top spot in the imperial examination, let's hurry back to the village tomorrow morning and tell all the neighbors about this great news! Let everyone be happy too!"
Yun Tingchang nodded hurriedly in agreement, "Right, right, right, big brother, you're absolutely right! Not only should we go back and announce the good news, we should also hold a grand banquet in the village and invite the villagers to enjoy a good meal and celebrate together!"
Hearing this, Old Lady Yun smiled so much that her eyes narrowed into slits. She had to return home tomorrow, which was really too hasty and unexpected.
Old Lady Yun quickly calmed the excited crowd and said, "Tomorrow we will go to the store to open for business as usual, and then inform everyone in the store of our return home. We will set off for home the day after tomorrow."
"Everything is up to mother." The brothers responded in unison.
By the time the matter was discussed, it was already deep night and the bright moonlight was shining on the earth.
Everyone walked back to their rooms under the moonlight, but without exception, everyone's heart was filled with irrepressible excitement, so much so that they tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time.
